Block up

Radius block came yesterday. Holes drilled in tailpiece. Arm attached to the fret pusher block so it can be put into a pillar drill and push the frets in.

Fretwire

Gold Leaf Guitar Blog


I bought this guitar on ebay for £17 and have dreams of upgrading this guitar with stainless steel frets and tailpiece with a gold leaf finish.
